We have picked Outlook Express because it is a very commonly used
email client and the set-up is virtually identical for Microsoft Outlook.
Most other email clients use similar settings.

Before
setting up your email account make sure you have your username and
password which we sent you with your account confirmation. If you want
to send email using your own ISP's outgoing mail server (SMTP) then
you will also need your Internet Service Provider's (ISP) outgoing
mail
server (SMTP) address.
